Late Night

He's come home to do some business, make a sale She wants to talk about the price He's travelling incognito with hours to spare She's drinking vodka with ice Late night exchanges stare you in the eyes Open your eyes — everyone buys Don't be a clown, just shop around In the market-place Did you see them running in the rain What if someone spots your dirty hands Swimming in the sewers Like the rat in the drain Better hope the judge will understand Parking meter ticking, running into red Somebody's lights are flickering Batteries are dead Nothing to be heard, nothing left to say No one says a word, but someone has to pay It's not love that makes her do it She always blew it She's sitting at the table in the bar Do you want some company tonight? She's smiling in approval With money to spend They are doing business alright Late night exchanges stare you in the eyes Open your eyes — everyone buys Don't be a clown, just shop around In the market-place He's come home to do some business, make a sale She wants to talk about the price He's travelling incognito with hours to spare She's drinking vodka with ice Late night exchanges stare you in the eyes Open your eyes — everyone buys Don't be a clown, just shop around In the market-place
